Last week “Wu-Tang Is Coming” posters started to pop up around the country and now we know exactly why as the Wu-Tang Clan have announced a February 2016 tour.
While the exact lineup is yet to be confirmed, there will be three Wu-Tang shows across the country in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane kicking off at the end of February. The last time they toured in Australia was in 2011 with a crew made up of Raekwon, Ghostface Killah, GZA, U-God, Inspectah Deck, Masta Killa, Mathematics and Young Dirty.
Since 2011, there have been a few solo tours including one from Ghostface Killah who visited us late last year.
Known to many as one of the most innovative groups in hip-hop of all time, Wu-Tang Clan have seven iconic albums to their name including Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) which is considered to be one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time.
They only released one copy of their most recent album Once Upon A Time In Shaolin which was sold for $2 million to Pharmaceutical CEO/anti-christ Martin Shkreli. He is allowed to distribute the album for free and hold listening parties but he has declined to do so meaning nobody has heard the record.
Tickets go on sale at 9am on Tuesday 22nd December. Check out all the details below.
UPDATE 28/01/16: Ivan Ooze has been announced as the support act for every show of Wu-Tang’s tour.
